I am doing a "guest demonstration" at an international kindergarten for book week- demonstrating how to illustrate a book. To sixty 5 year olds. Ahem.

Anyway, I was looking for the text for Goldilocks and the Three Bears online, so I could print it out as a book and have each kid in the classes illustrate a page each. I found the plot line on Wikipedia, prefaced by this warning:

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

I appreciate the concern, but with one of the most well known fairytales of all time, I think the jig is up.

About Me

Tales from a self-proclaimed Aussie Nomad in Shanghai.
It took me all of my first 20 years to leave Australia, finally ending up in Dili, East Timor in 2000. Since then I haven't wanted to stop traveling. Yet, as simply holidaying doesn't quite scratch the travel-bug's itch, I much prefer to live, work and play in the countries I visit. In my opinion, as insane as it can make you at times, cultural immersion is much more fulfilling than a postcard holiday.
Now I am living in Shanghai, with my better half, Philippe, and 20 million others. An artist, teacher and nomad, I embarked on this latest journey in August 2005.
And like the best journeys, its final destination is a mystery.
